Subject: Re: [clazz] Type-based or instance-based metadata?

These attributes can be read from the IClass (BTW, I hate prefixed
interfaces/etc.--

interfaces should be your primary type, so if we have any
idioms put it on
the

implementing class).
The name of the interface could be AClass, with the implementation as
AClassImpl. Not sure if this is better though. IClass and AClass feels more
'right' (ie. normally I would agree with your no prefix comment Berin)

How about ClassInfo? ClassMeta? MetaClass? ClassMetaInfo?

I like MetaClass and MetaMethod.

I.e. for all Meta enabled reflection (i.e. attributes) we use the Meta
prefix.  It makes sense in this sense because we are not following the
trap of encoding type into the name (avoiding hungarian notation
conventions).
